can I use on my car to keep rodents from knawing on wires

I sprayed it behind a couple of objects that the mice were useingto hide and they were back the same day. Didnt work at all .

Probably can. Spray all around except where it gets hot. Spray fenders grill and suspension and all where they get access. spray often. The stronger it is, the more effective.

My Corvette suffered a mouse infestation on top of the engine block last winter. I took to putting mouse traps in the engine compartment to keep them under control before they starting eating my expensive wires and sensors. Now I spray this stuff in the engine compartment every week or so and so far no mouses have nested there. Also, my wife's Jeep had the same problem. So, to answer your question, that's what I bought them for (so far I have purchased 4 bottles). Seems to work, but those critters might just get used to it - I don't know. Regards, Stewart Kane

I used this product in all areas of my home where I thought a rodent would have access with no damage to floors or carpet. It seems to me this product would not harm wires.

I have only used it for my house and it seems to have worked there. Ingredients don't seem to be harmful so give it a try. Mr. Kane seemed to have good luck. Worth a try. If you park in a garage try spraying around the perimeter of your car on the floor.

I purchased this product for mice in a NYC apt. Unfortunately, it didn't work. I don't believe it would work for mice in a car engine either. Sorry!

I was having rodent problems in my sports car which I park outside, but covered. Since I have used this, the rat(s) have gone elsewhere. they no longer chew on my spark plug cables. I put it on top of the manifold when Im not driving the car. I think it tends to work in a 360 degree arc

Probably not. I got it to try and keep skunks raccoons, possums, and cats away, they are still coming around. Wish I could find something to keep them away

i dont really think so. it is a very low frequency that runs thru your electrical wiring in your home, garage or barn. we use 2 units in a small barn 22 x 28 and it helps w/ mice somewhat. however this time of year it is most difficult to keep any kind of critters outside. but they do make an "outside" unit for the yards... you may want to try that..... good luck!!!

It might work for that, I use it outside to keep the cats off of our cars and it is not very effective. I think using it in a close proximity would be effective.

I would not use it myself ,the wires ( plug ) are of a standard coveiring and not heat shielded.

soap and water or for tough deposits you can use the spray Oreck offers. Let it air dry. Don't scrub or you risk damaging the fine wires, if there are any.

Hi Dan, my problem was squirrels gettings in my engine. I sprinkled this around my car and it kept them away. Give it a try. I hope it works!

Yes. This wire is intended for" invisible" type pet fences. You can splice this wire with the wire thats already there or hook up directly to the box. Lay on the ground or bury. If you make a splice be sure to grease the wire nuts and get water proof caps for your nuts

I concur with the great answer by Charles Taylor. The kit also has some stick-on wire management clips to keep wires out of sight.

Yes, just make sure you use some type of shim to level the detector. I use a rolled up washcloth and place it between the visor and the ceiling of my car. Anything will work as a shim that doesn't damage your car.

For best results; yes. One important reason is to hide and isolate the wires from getting shorted. Shorting across 48 volt wiring can lead to lots of smoke and melted stuff. you can build a bracket to mount on top of the dash, but it too, needs to be enclosed.

Not going to work well for car hoods. They have an extremely oily base that could create paint problems. You could put them beside the car, and they might deter the cats.

Yes. I used it to stuff in around wires in conduit to keep mice from getting into the junction box. I had used steel wool but the damp area caused it to rust out. The copper will solve this problem and you should work for you too.

No - the terminals are firmly built in, and the weatherproofing pretty much prevents their removal. If you could get them out, it'd be very unlikely that the replacement wires/terminals would end up with a weatherproof enclosure when you were done.

From my understanding, this "vibrates" the wires inside the wall to work. It didn't bother any of our pets. If you have mice in the home already when you plug in, you will need to catch them. They won't go back into the walls.
